These comfy legwarmers will keep your legs toasty on your chilly morning walk! The buttons serve not only a decorative purpose, but a functional one as well: you don’t have to take off your shoes to remove the legwarmers when you get home! Double your wearing options by attaching buttons to both sides – the wrong side is pretty, too!
